Job description

Want to sell solutions that make a difference?

The maritime industry is undergoing a major transformation. New requirements for sustainability, decarbonisation and compliance are creating both challenges and significant opportunities for shipowners and maritime companies around the world.

At Metizoft, we help our customers meet these challenges through a portfolio of leading products and advisory services that support both sustainable and profitable results.

Here, you will have the opportunity to work with some of the world’s most exciting maritime companies, build long-term customer relationships and represent solutions that are in demand in a rapidly growing market.

About the role

We are looking for an experienced and driven VP Sales with a strong background in the maritime industry. This role is for someone who enjoys creating new opportunities, building trust with customers and managing complex B2B sales processes from the first meeting through to signed contract.

You will be responsible for developing your own customer portfolio and representing a broad range of software solutions and advisory services, from leading solutions within IHM and ESG to our new Metizoft Powersave platform, which helps shipowners reduce fuel consumption and accelerate fleet decarbonisation.

You will have significant freedom to manage your own working day while also becoming a key part of our commercial team.

Key responsibilities

• Develop new customers and business opportunities in Norway and internationally.
• Build long-term relationships with decision-makers at shipowners, shipyards and other maritime companies.
• Manage the full sales process, from initial contact through to signed agreement, while also following up and developing existing customer relationships.
• Work closely with our technical and product specialists to deliver the best solution for each customer.
• Contribute market insight and identify new commercial opportunities.
• Play an active role in Metizoft’s continued growth and commercial development.

Who are we looking for?

We believe you will succeed in this role if you:

• Have a proven track record in B2B sales and solid experience from the maritime industry
• Enjoy developing new customer relationships and opening new doors
• Build trust with senior leaders and decision-makers
• Work in a structured and independent way
• Are commercially minded and motivated by delivering results
• Communicate well in both Norwegian and English

Why Metizoft?

At Metizoft, you get more than a sales role.

You will become part of an international technology company with high ambitions, short decision-making lines and a strong professional environment. We believe the best results are achieved when talented people are given trust, responsibility and freedom.

We offer:

• A key role in a well-established company with international growth ambitions
• The opportunity to work with some of the world’s most exciting maritime customers
• Significant freedom to shape your own working day
• A highly skilled and international team
• Competitive compensation with an attractive bonus scheme
